MPEG-4 Video Content

MPEG-4 media content contains information about the duration, video & audio tracks, and where each picture within a file can be found (at either the beginning or end of a file). In order to allow requests to be made using a `start` or `end` *time in seconds* we provide special handling of MPEG-4 video content served through our platform. Certain header optimizations are performed to remove unwanted space and fix media synchronization issues.

Using the `start` and `end` URL arguments and a duration in seconds the response of a video can be manipulated. Our platform will retrieve the beginning of the media content from its cache or using a HTTP range request from the origin source and return the modified response depending on the request.
